About the work

Takuya Kamioka visualizes the beauty created by the interplay of light and reflection. His work is often based on capturing impressive views, landscapes, and fleeting scenes found in everyday life, rather than on iconic subjects. Although the objects he paints are mostly common, they appear with different colors and expressions each time, depending on the location, time of day, and angle from which they are observed. This is influenced by natural elements such as air, sun, and climate, so the scenes he paints are full of natural beauty. Recently, the artist has been focusing on the landscapes of California. He says this is because the climate, the brightness of the sun, and the hues found in the air are the most similar to the colors he tries to showcase through his work. The artist applies the deformé style of representation to his work, minimally distorting and deforming the image to give depth to the emotions it conveys and create a new visual experience for the viewer. Deformé is a style of expression used primarily in Japanese art, and refers to the intentional distortion of an object's appearance to emphasize its unique emotions and sensations. His work is also impressionistic in nature, as he enjoys playing with light and color. However, on the other hand, his works can also be understood as being influenced by the expressionism style, as he does not focus on the reproduction of the scene as the main objective of painting, but rather distorts, deforms, and simplifies the shapes of objects to capture his inner feelings and subjective experiences at the time. The harmonization of two expressionistic styles, which have opposite characteristics, on the same canvas becomes the artist's representative painterly character.

Takuya Kamioka
Takuya Kamioka
Tokyo · b. unknown

Takuya Kamioka naturally began his journey in art under the influence of his grandfather and father, who were both painters and illustrators. However, the most decisive moment in his artistic journey was his childhood exposure to hip-hop music and street graffiti. This experience ignited a significant cultural and artistic inspiration in him, and to this day, street culture remains deeply rooted in his work. He focuses on capturing the beauty of harmony and contrast created by light and reflections in everyday landscapes, rather than symbolic subjects. He combines his own photography with imaginative elements to create dreamlike atmospheres in his paintings. He has consistently collaborated with companies and brands such as REEBOK, ADIDAS, TORIBA COFFEE, and DOUTOR, as well as musicians like FUJII KAZE, AWICH, ANARCHY, KOHH, and KANDYTOWN.
